"Marriage material" refer to personality of a person , i.e. to the level of maturity , rather than to his age.While it's, indeed, possible to outlive one's bonding abilities ( i.e. both genital and emotional potency ), it's also possible for a person to never develop any of such abilities. While genital deficiency can be to some extent helped with viagra , there's no cure for emotional impotence so far. In this case the person will never be old enough to be considered "marriage material".As for financial potency , it's not always related to the person's age , but in most cases chances are it improves with age...

Does not matter. But there is a major difference. Only if a man or a woman wants to have children of their own, then that is a whole another story. Actually I should say, it is more dangerous for women over 45 to have a baby. And men who are have prostate cancer, or prostates removed, then its "too old". Not really. I would call it, "Too late"

I am 45 and I still like to get married and have children. I want to say in caps but it is not allowed! Hahhaa.

This means a woman age.. say.. 50 is not suitable for me. It would be too late for her. Not me. Say, a woman is 35, then it is okay. Because a good couple of years from her age, we would have a child by then! That is why I am seeking for someone between 18 and 35 but has to have that maturity of 40s and 50s for them. Mature more than their own age.

So, its never too old to get married, period. I knew of a neighbor in my town who was featured in the papers that he finally got married at age 60 to a woman half his age and has a child. I was proud of him! I might end up the same!

Should you not mull over the perils of letting a woman in your life ? Don’t you like to wise yourself up about the difference between the male mindset and retrograde whims of women ? Then listen to the song that Rex Harrison (as Professor Henry Higgins) sings in My Fair Lady:

I’m an ordinary man,who desires nothing more than just an ordinary chance,to live exactly as he likes, and do precisely what he wants…An average man am I, of no eccentric whim,Who likes to live his life, free of strife,doing whatever he thinks is best for him,Well… just an ordinary man…

BUT, let a woman in your lifeand your serenity if through,she’ll redecorate your home,from the cellar to the dome,and then go to the enthralling fun of overhauling you…

Let a woman in your life,and you’re up against a wall,make a plan and you will find,she has something else in mind,and so rather than do either you do something else that neither likes at all.You want to talk of Keats or Milton, she only wants to talk of love,You go to see a play or ballet, and spend it searching for her glove,Let a woman in your life and you invite eternal strife,Let them buy their wedding bands for those anxious little hands…I’d be equally as willing for a dentist to be drilling than to ever leta woman in my life.

I’m a very gentle man,even-tempered and good-natured whom you never hear complain,Who has the milk of human kindness by the quart in every vein,A patient man am I, down to my fingertips,The sort who never could, never would, let an insulting remark escape his lips.A very gentle man.

BUT, let a woman in your life, and patience hasn’t got a chance.She will beg you for advice,your reply will be concise, and she’ll listen very nicely,and go out and do precisely what she wants!You are a man of grace and polish who never spoke above a hush,now all at once you’re using language that would a sailor blush,Let a woman in your life, and you’re plunging in a knife,Let the others of my sex, tie the knot around their necks,I’d prefer a new edition of the Spanish Inquisition than to ever let awoman in my life.

I’m a quiet living man,who prefers to spend the evenings in the silence of his room,who likes an atmosphere as restful as an undiscovered tomb,A pensive man am I, of philosophic joys,who likes to meditate, contemplate, free from humanity’s mad inhuman noise,A quiet living man.

BUT, let a woman in your life, and your sabbatical is through,in a line that never ends come an army of her friends,come to jabber, and to chatter, and to tell her what the matter is with YOU!She’ll have a booming boisterous family,who will descend on you en mass,She’ll have a large wagnerian mother, with a voice that shatters glass.

Indeed, puss, some guys are never a marriage material , no matter what age they are they are always "too old to get married" ...

Maybe they just play hard to get ....remember that to "snare a a shy prey" of a male, a female must be shrewd and very smart. And never-ever let him know that he is the "trophy" she is after until he is "tagged and bagged"But such females are all extinct (exterminated with extreme prejudicem by the feminist )....so, don't worry my fellow "too old to get married" members of the male gender, we shall be free from the female oppression & and pursue our endeavors in life, in peace.

There is no age limit

Although I do believe that everyone who is planning on getting married should be required to cohabitate with the significant other for at least one year prior to taking their vows!

It would put a big hurting on the divorce lawyers workloads

never too old as long as you think and feel young ..... my aunt was 80 when she married for the first time her childhood sweetheart 3 years ago

It doesn't work this way in real life, CC ... Statistically , the couples who committed premarital cohabitation are twice as likely to get divorced than those couples who didn't . There's nothing deadlier for marriage than premarital cohabitation , which, in my opinion , is quite understandable ...

Pauline Rothshield once said : " A woman in her 20ies should marry an American , in her 30ies - hot Latino guy , in her 40ies - a Frenchman , in her 50ies - a Jewish guy and in her 60ies - an Englishman". When she's 70 , there will be more advice on this topic from this wise lady , I believe ...
